Billable / SpecificICD-10-CMOfficial ICD-10-CMCodebook guidanceOther specified disorders of carbohydrate metabolism
A metabolic disorder affecting how the body breaks down or processes carbohydrates (sugars and starches) that doesn't fit into other specific carbohydrate metabolism categories.

Buddy Insight
Other specified disorders of carbohydrate metabolism is a residual code capturing carbohydrate metabolism disorders that do not fit into specific categories for glycogen storage diseases, galactose disorders, or glucose transport defects.

Is E74.89 an HCC code?
E74.89 is not in the CMS-HCC V28 or V24 community payment model. E74.89 has a separate mapping under the CMS-HCC ESRD model (HCC 23 (Other Significant Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders)) and the Part D RxHCC model (HCC 43 (Pituitary, Adrenal Gland, and Other Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders)); the applicable result needs member context. E74.89 also appears in the HHS-HCC commercial risk model (HCC 028 (HHS-HCC 028 child, RAF varies by metal level)), where the result depends on member context and is not a Medicare Advantage payment mapping.

HCC Category Mapping
These are source-labeled model coefficients, not member totals. A category may still be removed by hierarchy or model cleanup rules. Weights are not directly comparable across models: CMS-HCC V28 and V24 use Community, Non-Dual, Aged; ESRD uses the dialysis continuing-enrollee model; RxHCC is the Part D continuing-enrollee, non-low-income, aged weight (a larger scale than CMS-HCC). ACA/HHS has no single weight — it varies by metal level. Actual per-patient RAF contribution depends on member context, hierarchy and cleanup rules, interactions, and the model year used by the payer. V28 is the CMS-HCC model phased in over payment years 2024–2026; V24 remains available for historical review.

MEAT review for E74.89
For E74.89, confirm that the documentation supports the diagnosis and meets the applicable coding, encounter, program and payer requirements. MEAT (Monitor, Evaluate, Assess, or Treat) is a review mnemonic, not a universal CMS coding rule.
- MMonitor: signs, symptoms, disease progression, or lab trending documented in the note
- EEvaluate: test results, medication response, or physical findings reviewed by the provider
- AAssess: explicit mention in the assessment or plan with acknowledgment of status
- TTreat: medication, referral, procedure, therapy, or counseling tied to the diagnosis

What This Code Means
E74.89 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other specified disorders of carbohydrate metabolism. A metabolic disorder affecting how the body breaks down or processes carbohydrates (sugars and starches) that doesn't fit into other specific carbohydrate metabolism categories. E74.89 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (e00-e89), within the section covering metabolic disorders (e70-e88).
E74.89 has no mapping under the CMS-HCC V28 or V24 community payment models. E74.89 has a separate mapping under the CMS-HCC ESRD model (HCC 23 (Other Significant Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders)) and the Part D RxHCC model (HCC 43 (Pituitary, Adrenal Gland, and Other Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders)); the applicable result needs member context. E74.89 also appears in the HHS-HCC commercial risk model (HCC 028 (HHS-HCC 028 child, RAF varies by metal level)), where the result depends on member context and is not a Medicare Advantage payment mapping. Do not assign V28 risk adjustment value from this page; verify the applicable model and payment year before using this code for risk adjustment.
Document the specific carbohydrate metabolism defect in the medical record for clarity.
HCC Buddy maintains structured V28 and V24 mapping, source-labeled coefficient references, and MEAT documentation criteria for E74.89 sourced directly from the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model files and the CMS ICD-10-CM code set.
Coding Tips
- •Document the specific carbohydrate metabolism defect in the medical record for clarity
- •Review the medical record to ensure a more specific E74 code is not applicable before using this code
Clinical Significance
Other specified disorders of carbohydrate metabolism is a residual code capturing carbohydrate metabolism disorders that do not fit into specific categories for glycogen storage diseases, galactose disorders, or glucose transport defects. This includes conditions like essential fructosuria, hereditary fructose intolerance, and fructose-1,6-diphosphatase deficiency. Some of these can cause severe hypoglycemia and liver damage.
Documentation Requirements
- ✓Specific carbohydrate metabolism disorder identified by the provider
- ✓Laboratory confirmation including relevant enzyme assays or metabolic testing
- ✓Genetic testing results if available
- ✓Documentation of clinical manifestations and dietary triggers
- ✓Current dietary management plan including avoidance of specific carbohydrates
Commonly Confused Codes
- •E74.9: Disorder of carbohydrate metabolism, unspecified: use only when no specific disorder is identified
- •E74.00-E74.09: Glycogen storage diseases: separate specific codes for GSD
- •E74.20-E74.29: Disorders of galactose metabolism: galactose-specific disorders have their own codes
- •E74.31: Sucrase-isomaltase deficiency: has its own specific code
- •E74.4: Disorders of pyruvate metabolism and gluconeogenesis: separate category
